Rapa das Bestas de Sabucedo
Desde 04-07-2026 hasta 05-07-2026

This event dates back to the 18th century, the first time wild horses were rounded up from the mountains to be trimmed and marked as a festival. However, this tradition is believed to be much older. In 1963 the event was declared a Festival of National Tourist Interest, and in 2007 it was upgraded to international status. It consists of people rounding up the horses from the mountain, leading them to horse pens, shearing and marking them. This work is carried out by the aloitadores, who hold the horses while they trim their manes. An additional event takes place on Saturday morning, when an emotional mass is delivered before climbing the mountain in which the people ask San Lorenzo (‘Saint Lawrence’, the patron saint of Sabucedo) to protect them from any accident or disaster during the festivities.
